OMPAN and other civil society organisations proposed the Summit in order to provide a formal platform for candidates of political parties to share their mission, vision and motives for seeking elective political offices from Abians and the general public

Chief Anyatonwu explained that the difference between the Town Hall interface and the open air campaigns is that the atmosphere of the Town Hall session would provide Abians and the general public opportunity to closely interrogate the candidates by asking specific questions and seeking clarifications how they would implement their proposed manifesto and campaigns promises.

 

“The campaigns in the open is more like carnivals with party supporters singing and dancing. And the people do not get the opportunity to ask questions of those seeking elective offices, but during the town session, the candidates would provide explanations how they would execute the proposals in their manifesto, and their campaigns promises”, Chief Anyatonwu stated
